Do you get a little nervous before a flight? If you do, you’re not alone. Between 33% and 40% of people feel some form of anxiety when they board a plane. While a giant metal object, flying through the air stuffed with people and cargo sure sounds precarious, planes are actually pretty steady. Not convinced? Let’s do an experiment. Here we have a Boeing 777. It’s a full flight. And we’re going to make all 500 passengers jump at once. How much force would that exert? What is natural frequency? Why are sandbags used on a plane?

In developing countries, UVC is often used to help purify drinking water. Its reputation is established as a reliable killer of microbes, so people are now wondering if UVC can be brought to battle against the novel coronavirus. How effective would it be? Could we make it widely accessible? Could its side effects make the cure worse than the cause?

Roughly 60 million years ago, the largest snake to ever exist roamed the Earth. This is the Titanoboa. This giant snake hunted reptiles, birds, and even crocodiles. So what would happen if this creature roamed the Earth today? How much food would it need to eat? Would it be a threat to humans? And how big was this thing?

Instead, it's a supervolcano! If Yellowstone decided to erupt, the results would be devastating. But just how bad would they be? Is there anything we could do to stop it? Could this affect the entire world? And how would this change our weather?

Imagine working at a steel mill. You somehow landed a job. It's your first day, and you are assigned to the forge. Alright, let's make some metal. You try to show off your expert smithing skills to your coworkers but, unfortunately, you slip and fall into a pool of molten metal. Whoops. How could the type of molten metal determine your fate? Could the Leidenfrost effect help you survive? What kind of thermal, protective suit could protect you? Would surviving the fall come with lead poisoning? Can a suit made from hafnium help you in any way?

A marshmallow meteorite hurtling straight toward Earth?
How would this sweet space object begin its descent toward our planet? Would the rapid speed of 99.9% of the speed of light, which is 299,792 km/s (186, 282 mps), cause the marshmallow to disintegrate in mid-air?
What would happen if a marshmallow traveling at light speed actually made contact with Earth?

All good things must come to an end. Sadly, Homo sapiens’ time on Earth is no exception. And someone would surely take our place as the dominant species. How could genetic engineering spell out the end for our species? What would distinguish the next Homo species from us? And could the world’s next dominant species not be human at all?

What if we found the way to drain all the Earth's oceans through some mysterious portal at the bottom of the Mariana Trench? How long would it take? Years? Centuries? Millennia? Would there be any life left on Earth when the pumping was over? What if it happened overnight?
Oceanic water makes up 70% of the Earth’s surface. If we opened a portal about the size of a basketball court, it would take us hundreds of thousands of years to pump out the oceans. They hold over a billion cubic km (321 million cubic miles) of water. But what if we had a pump powerful enough to drain all the oceans in a minute? What would happen then?
